13 week BBB x two that I used to think were Toms but now I believe they were just displaying hens as youngsters. I’ve never heard them gobble.

Bird one- “kink” (after a skateboard brand or something via my son)

Hens. Bird in back of third picture is a tom. At this age if the snood still has fuzz and isnt longer than beak, they're hens.

That's all one bird in those three pics. All the same one I mean. I know you mean the one that's all red behind her is the tom right? I figured. He gobbles. But the one pictured is a hen, eh? I thought so but everyone around here disagrees with me because she's soooooo dominate. I always thought hen. How sure are you?
 
You should also be able to feel beard buttons on the toms
No kidding?!? I'm always running their chests and haven't yet but I haven't been looking for them with. I will now! Thanks!

Edit. Btw my "no kidding." Was supposed to be "no kidding?!?". Not snarky. Surprised inflection. I fixed it @TurkeyTimes . I realized it sounded really b$&chy with a "." Vs "?!" (Like, wow. Really?!) Which How I intended it to sound. Lol.
